      Hybrid components

      Hybrid injection molding technology creates a form-fit connection between a thermoplastic and other components made of materials such as metal, ceramic, glass, fabric or electronic components in a single process step. This type of joint replaces the traditional joining or bonding of other plastic components, eliminating additional process steps. Wherever a force needs to be transmitted as precisely as possible, a low-wear metal bearing makes sense; where signals need to be transmitted, cables and connectors need to be firmly connected to a component; where a screw connection is subject to mechanical stress and would eventually tear out of the plastic, a combination of plastic and metal is the answer. The stable positioning of the inserts in the injection mold plays an important role in ensuring the accurate fit and longevity of the entire component. A distinction is made between insert and outsert technology. In insert technology, metal parts are incorporated into a part that is primarily plastic. In outsert technology, the majority of the part consists of another component onto which plastic elements are molded.acad's Rapid Molding System enables the cost-effective use of inserts, even in small quantities, by using gravity for positioning without the need for complex handling systems. acad can support you in the field of hybrid injection molding technology and advise you comprehensively on your questions.

    2. Hybrid Ovens For Plasma Nitride & PVD Coating

      Hybrid Ovens For Plasma Nitride & PVD Coating

      Our ELOVATION Hybrid systems make it possible to apply the PVD coating directly to a plasma-nitrided compound layer without interrupting the vacuum process, with optimum bonding of the layer to the substrate and without the dissolved compound layer, which reduces adhesion. This enables the use of very hard modern PVD coatings such as Ti(Al)SiN nanocomposites directly on a favorable substrate such as heat-treatable steels. Smooth PVD coatings from the ELOVATION system Our technology allows smooth layers to be deposited with very short process times. Convince yourself of the ELTROPULS quality! Use smooth coatings to your advantage. Re-polishing is no longer necessary - this saves time and money! It combines all the advantages of the previous technologies - as simple as arc coating, as high quality as HiPims coating and as economically ingenious as all Eltropuls systems. And the best thing is, it is also a fully-fledged plasma nitriding system with the latest technology! Some advantages: smooth coatings (without droplets) good adhesion high deposition rates
